You mentioned in a previous message that mplayer and vlc work on one computer, but not on the other. So we know they both work. I think the problem is somewhere in the remote access. How are you accessing the rtsp stream? Is it like so (example name and numbers)... mplayer rtsp://10.1.2.3/stream_name Things to check... * if you're using a domain name rather than an IP address, is it defined in the remote machine's /etc/hosts ? * is the remote machine's firewall blocking the camera's IP address ? * is the camera set to only stream to a specific IP address (range) ? -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
